Unfortunately I don't have copies of the PPDs from /etc/cups/ppd/
prior to the upgrade anymore. The one driver we had which got the
"hpPrinterLanguage not found" error (on three print queues) was:
   hp-laserjet_p1505n-hpijs-pcl3.ppd.gz

Other than that, I think every printer using a hpijs driver which
previously had it's default page size set to A4 got changed with the
upgrade to show "Postscript_Custom_PageSize" (from memory). I changed
them all back to A4 manually before I discovered the other issue with
the P1505n printer.

  HP LaserJet 1022 hpijs
  HP LaserJet 2430 hpijs
  HP LaserJet P2015 hpijs
  HP LaserJet 2300 hpijs

The version we were using immediately prior to this upgrade was
3.9.4b-1. I really should have taken a snapshot of /etc/cups/ppd/*
before I ran that script. Sorry about that.

Regards,
Kevin.
